>>66444139
Even if just for the PR win. He could go to QC and salvage his reputation with Canadian fans. If he's looking to retire anytime soon that's what he should do.
>>66444139
The problem is he never played hockey and he doesn't care about the sport. The stereotype about jews is accurate in this case. He's concerned only with making money, and he doesn't care that in twenty years (or less) the league will be in full financial meltdown. Too many teams simply don't generate enough revenue, and any expansion teams will only make the inevitable crisis worse.
>>66444160
The jets relocation has been a 100% success. all he has to do is open his damn eyes. But all i hear is that the nhl is leaning towards vegas because its an untouched market and being the first sports team in vegas is some sort of coveted title that will bring in huge revenue but i can see this team struggling and when they dont have a rabbid canadian fan base to fill the seats then i can see it being another one of his shitty fucking decisions.
>there will NEVER be an Alaskan NHL team in your lifetime
>Sami Vatanen will play monday
Was getting worried for a second. Kesler is also back, so all that's missing is David Perron, Simon Despres, and Bieksa(lol)
>>66444184
You're definitely right, Bettman is all about the money, he doesnt give a shit about the fans.
>>66444209
Vegas will have full crowds most nights. The problem is it's going to be a huge number of visiting fans. I can imagine that any home game against Canadian teams or southwest teams are gonna be packed with traveling fans. You just know the casinos are already licking their lips at being able to sell vacation packages to Canadians. Flights, two nights hotel, and game tickets for $800 are gonna be a popular weekend trip for Van, Cal, and Edm.
>>66444234
how much of a market does alaska have? do they have a city with a high enough population? genuinely curious.
>>66444262
Anchorage has a metro pop of 400,000. By comparison Winnipeg has 730,000.
>>66444262
>>66444262
Hockey is pretty big in Alaska (lived there for 5 years, I'd bandwagon the fuck out of an Alaskan team). Anchorage has about 300,000 people. Fairbanks and Juneau both have around 30,000 people.
Lmao they would get better attendance than a lot of NHL teams right now
>>66444252
yeah you're probably right about that but i cant see this vegas team having a great fan base. at the end of the day ticket sales are all that mater for bettman.
>>66444295
I believe it.Seems like the type of place where even a small population would fill the seats.
>>66444295
No they wouldnt.
>>66444335
The Yotes and Canes both have terrible attendance. Coloumbus and and the Islanders both have shit attendance too. I'm sure Anchorage could pull more than 13,000
Problem is though, kinda like Vegas, how are you gonna convince star players to live there? You might have to do something like give them a bit more salary cap room so they can offer more so players actually sign with them.

I'm embarrased that I recognized the damn thing just by the thumbnail.

If they're so smart why didn't they leave their shithole earlier? It's not like Syria has been known as a nice place to live. They didn't leave before because they like their muslim shithole and all the things that come with it, including the honor killings. And rather than adapt to our country they'll just try to force Canada to become more muslim and allow honor killings too.
